Christina’s Quotes

“There is nothing so secular that it cannot be sacred, and that is one of the deepest messages of the Incarnation”
― Madeleine L'Engle, Walking on Water: Reflections on Faith and Art

“You were not just born to center your entire existence on work and labor. You were born to heal, to grow, to be of service to yourself and community, to practice, to experiment, to create, to have space, to dream, and to connect.”
― Tricia Hersey, Rest Is Resistance: A Manifesto

“Being saved, I was taught when I was a child, was a way of saying, Sinner that I am, sinner that I will ever be, I relinquish control of my life to He who knows more than I, He who knows everything. It is not a magical moment of becoming sinless, blameless, but rather it’s a way of saying, Walk with me.”
― Yaa Gyasi, Transcendent Kingdom

“Salvation, redemption, it was as intentional as skin touching skin, as holy as that.”
― Yaa Gyasi, Transcendent Kingdom

“I wanted, above all else, to be good. And I wanted the path to that goodness to be clear. I suspect that is why I excelled at math and science, where the rules are laid out step by step, where if you did something exactly the way it was supposed to be done, the result would be exactly as it was expected to be.”
― Yaa Gyasi, Transcendent Kingdom
